Chief Justice John Roberts temporarily halted an order directing the Trump administration to bring an alleged MS-13 gang member back into the country.
The Trump administration asked the Supreme Court earlier Monday to block an order directing officials to return Kilmar Abrego Garcia, who was deported in March to El Salvador, back to the United States by 11:59 p.m.
“The United States cannot guarantee success in sensitive international negotiations in advance, least of all when a court imposes an absurdly compressed, mandatory deadline that vastly complicates the give-and-take of foreign-relations negotiations,” the administration wrote Tuesday in its emergency application. “The United States does not control the sovereign nation of El Salvador, nor can it compel El Salvador to follow a federal judge’s bidding.”
Roberts requested a response to the administration’s application by Tuesday at 5 pm.
